About the Paradigm 4

An evolution of the Paradigm series with a shape shifting hull

Gavin has conjured up a design that can change it's shape according to the conditions. We've created a short video filmed at the 2019 championships where Gavin explains the how it works on his latest Paradigm 4. https://youtu.be/ne_rlswt1B8

In it's first iteration there is 60mm of deflection of the hull. Gavin is aiming for 110mm and having more buoyancy at the stern. 

So far it is only quick in over 10knots but Gavin has tweaks in mind to improve the light wind performance

Designer: Gavin Willis

Builder: Simon Hipkin
